When COWS first drop their calves a
mash of bran mixed up with warm
water is excellent to cool the internal
heat and prevent fever. At this time
and for a week afterward all the water
the COWS drink should at least have
the chill taken from it: There is no
doubt that warm food and drink are
greatly stimulating to the production
of milk, but is it best for the general
health of the COW to continue it? the
failures in giving cooked food to stock
may throw some light on this subject.
They are generally given warm, and
while the experimenter is much pleas
ed with the results at first, he finds after
one OF two years trial that the new
method is not SO advantageous as he
had supposed. If food is given warmer
than the animal heat it aids digestion,
but in the same proportion enfeebles
the stomach by giving it less work to
do. It is something like the effect of
stimulants when taken by human be-
ings.-Ameracon A~gracultmrast.

R~EDEEMABLE STAMPS.

The Improvement in the postofice
department has kept pace with the
progress of the nineteenth century.
The mail facilities of fifty years ago
appear to us that of a half civilized
people. The Gear marks" of all the
improvements point Enthusiastically to
the hands of those who live in cities
and towns. The postal delivery was
first applied to large cities and now is
given all those of 10, 1000 inhabitants
and it will not be long until it will be
given to all towns and villages.
The postal money order system is
given to all towns and is SO conducted
that the person Tor his agent) who de-
sires to use it must be present at the
postofice and have the order or note
written up by the postal clerk. AS
the people Of the cities and towns live
SO near the p~ostofice it is no inconven-
fence to them. But with farmers liv-
ing miles from the postofice it is very
inconvenient to be compelled to go to
the p~ostofice Cor send an agent) every
time he wants a postal order or note
for 25 cents, SO cents or ST.. Every
farmer who has made use of the pos
tai money system knows it is incon-
'venient. Why not issue ''redeemaab1e
stamps" of 5 cents, 10 cents, 25 cents,
SO cents and ST.. The advantage Of
this system would be that each person
could buy for future use just as they
now buy postage stamps. They could
be kept at every posto6fce and thus
brought within the reach Of all. ? The
great advantage of this system over
the the other will be apparent to any
n who will think of the convenience
in paying for newspapers, sending for
books, seed and and other articles of
merchandise transmissable through
the mails.
The only objection of any force that
can be urged against this system is
that it would pc unwise and cost too
much to make every office a depository
for sale and redemption of the stamps.
[ think this objection could be obvi-
iated by making all. posto6fiices of issue

and designating those which issue and
redeem. For a trial of the system
designate all those that are money
order Offices, Offices of issue and re-
demption, and all other of6ces-ofices
of issue only. Then as the system is
perfected, extend it.

Safety In Railroads

There is great deal to be done to
most of the railroads in this country
before they will be placed in a reason
ably satisfactory condition with re-
spect to safety to life. There are hun
dreds of duplicates in use of the bridge
that was burned at Chatsworth. Most
of the Western roads are cheaply con-
structed, and very few if any, have
double tracks. In the East a better
condition prevails, and improvements
are constantly going on. The Pennsyl-
vania Company is doing well, for in
stance, in substituting stone for iron
bridger where feasible.
But even our best roads fall short Of
the roads in England in point safety.
There, on the main lines, which are of
a thoroughly substantial character, no
wagon road or street is crossed at
grade. There are two sets of stations
at the stopping places--one for each
side of the double track, no crossing of
which by passengers is permitted.
The lines are more completely manned
there as arule. The expense of thus
equippiug our long roads would be very
great, but safety is worth a great price.
A Cheap railroad is sure in the long
run to prove very dear one World.

Formation of Mineral Coal.

In the mine of the Lackawanna Iron
and Coal company at Scranton, Pa.
has occurred within the last thirty
years remarkable instance of the
formation of mineral coal out of an
abandoned wooden prop. A mine had
been sealed to eXtinguish a fire that
could not well be got at, and was not
opened till about two years since, when
it was found still smouldering, and the
fire broke out afreSh on the admission
of air. By flooding, ETC., extinction
was accomplished, and in working
through the debris a prop was found of
which the lower half was well preserved
wood. Above this for some distance
it had become very soft charcoal that
crumbled at the touch. This shaded
off into very hard charcoal, and at the
top, where great pressure had occurred,
the post had changed into substance
closely resembling mineral COAL and the
change was even more strongly marked
In the wooden wedge that had been
driven between the top of the prop and
the roof rock. In this, while the
fibrous structure was distinct, the cross
fracture was sharp and conchoidal like
that of anteracite, the color jet black
and the luster like glass.-N. 7. Post.

The Atlantic Ocean has been acting
in an unprecedented manner during
the present summer. The Gulf Stream
is racing along with unusual rapadity
Not long ago it was announced that
the water of the ocean was phenOme-
nally warm. IcebergS have either
stayed at home, as a rule, or have
been melted before reaching the lanes
between here and Europe. The big
wave that tried to swallow up the UNI
bria is also manifestation of the gen.
eral departure of the Atlantic from its
customary behavior. An unusual
amount of stormy weather has pre-
vailed. The elements have been some
what demoralized on land also. The
visitation of heat and humidity in the
West, with cyclonic disturbances all
around, furnish food for scientific re-
Election as well as ground for popular
dissatisfaction.

has been impaired by dishonest man

The Government Commission has
asked the Central Pacific Railroad men
for two particular vouchers, one for

Both vouchers are missing, and there

went. On Thursday the Commission
was assured by the counsel for Director
Gage of the company that he would de-
cline to answer any questions as to his
knowledge ofmoney used for legislative
bribery. Those interested are doubt

Important if True.

The report that the government will
institute suits both criminal and civil
against the officials of the Central and
Union Pacific railroads who have mis-
used their trusts is, if true, the most
important piece of news that has come
from Washington since the adjourn
ment of Congress.
Facts enough have been disclosed by
the World and the investigating Com
mission to justify and to demand such
proceedings. There is no shadow of
doubt that the funds of one of these
companies, in which the Government
has a direct interest, have been di-
verted to purposes of bribery and cor
ruption. The people have been robbed
and their own servants corrupted with

1t is said that President Cleveland
will in his next message urge a reduc-
ton, and will be ably supported by Sec
Rotary Fairchild. Strong ground has
existed for the past seven years for a
reduction of taxation. In each of these
years the Government has collected
from the people many millions more
than was necessary to carry c.l the
government. Sec. Fairchild has pro-
posed to buy a per cent. bonds, hoping
to reduce the surplus, and at the same
time lessen the national debt. The
Secretary's offer has put up the price
of the securities beyond, where he would
be justified in buying them. President
Arthur urged prevention Of drawing
from the peoples pockets surplus, by
a reduction of taxation.
The redeemable debt formerly avail
able as an outlet for the surplus is now
all paid. There no longer exists an ex-
cuse for continuing the present high
tariff. Kansas is an agricultural state
While we seek the best prices for the
production of our soil, we do not ask
that individuals in other pursuits be
taxed for our support. To tax the peo-
pie more than is necessary to carry on
the government and pay just debts that
a few manufacturers may be enriched,
is legal robbery.
